Helsingor & Rosklide trip...

29th September:

Woke up damn early today... about 6 plus ba... Cos its gonna be a long day for us... planned a one day trip around Denmark... haha... quite excited about it.. 2 main highlights of the day... Krongborg Castle at Helsingor.. the castle that inspired Hamlet by Shakespears and the Vikings museum in Rosklide...

Helsingør (Elsinore)

1st Destination of the day... Helsingør, in English it's known as Elsinore... From here, u can actually see Sweden's Helsingborg... Read more about this place by clicking on the link! :)

The journey for the day started off with this...


The 24 hour ticket!!! haha... it's kinda stupid cos a 2 way ticket to Elsinore will cos is 130 bucks while a 24 hour ticket is only 110 bucks... haha...

Journey from Lyngby to Elsinore takes about... 30 to 45 mins.. it's pretty fast considering that it is quite far away... Quite like the trains in Denmark.. it looks new... and they have LED display which shows which station u are at and which station u are approaching... there's even dots to show ur proximity to the next station.. ie: the lesser the dots the nearer u are... Singapore should adopt this system man! haha...

1st impression when i reach Elsinore... it's a very beautiful town... hell, even the train station looks like some kind of castle like building... haha! the streets are those old medieval kind of streets... and as the other parts of Denmark are... u can almost see no tall buildings.. and any tall buildings there are will be some historical buildings... HOW NICE!!

Since we reach pretty early.. and we realised that the toursim office is sitll closed till 10.30am... we decided to walk around the town 1st... there's a large network of wide pedestrian street (cars will pass by sometimes too!) which alot of smalls stalls around... and also we passed by a few pastries shops... omg.. the pastries looks damn nice!!! haha... one more objective of the day then.. TO EAT DANISH PASTRIES!!! hehe...

After walking for sometime, we realised it's already 10.30(time flies..) so we went to the tourism office... to get some maps and maybe advice on where to go... Well as expected from our research.. it's the same few places to go.. hehe =X



After walking for some time in the ultra strong wind...(yes it's really strong!!! for a moment i can't move forward lor!!! =/) we finally is near the Kronborg castle!! It's a really nice castle... the view from far is damn nice... a castle just by the sea... haha.. no wonder Shakespear decided to write Hamlet.. hehe( Shakespears was inspired by this castle to write Hamlet, in fact Hamlet was supposed to take place there!)

Here's the photos~

Get your own

From Kronborg, u can actually see Sweden... on the opposite shore is Helsingborg.. As this castle is by the sea.. the wind there is also super-duper-ultra strong... phew.. what's with the strong wind in Denmark sia.. LOL... but i must say... nice scenery there...

Here are some paranormal pictures i took.. :) not very nice but i think it's a bit better...=X


Krongborg Castle... from afar...


Krongborg from the side...


More of Kronborg...


Kronborg Square...


View of Sweden from the Castle..

After having a happy trigger session of my camera... haha.. we decided to walk back to the town... on our way.. we drop by a part which is like a protruding part of Elsinore... and saw this statue..



Don't know what it is about... tried to research online but to no avail... =/


Anyway, we continued on to the next attraction, Church of St. Mary...

After some walking... we finally reach the place... however, it seems closed and we can't seem to find the main entrance... haha.. saw a door and we just open and go in.. =X

Well, it's quite a simple Church... nothing much really... maybe becos today is off season so really quiet.. hehe... in you guys are interested can read about it, just click on the link! Tried taking a few photographs.. but that place damn dark.. cos it's all enclosed place like dat... and it's quite eerie there i tot... like those kind of horror movie like dat... and maybe one scene can actually go into the movie "The Omen".. hehe.. =X



After the Church.. it started to rain so we carried on to walk the other parts of the town... but as it's raining.. so we decided to just go and buy our lunch(Danish pastries) and go back... However as Anthony read somewhere that there's a very nice ice cream stall somewhere there.. so we decided to look for it!! and this is what we found...


The ice cream stall~

And this is what we got!


Danish Ice cream!!

haha...see clearly and there's a WHOLE LOT OF WHIPPED CREAM on it.. haha! i went in and asked for the ice cream and the stall owner asked if i want whipped cream.. i hesitated and she said "you should have it, it's the danish way!"

haha... glad i did.. it was quite nice... with the cream and some fruity syrup.. yum yum!!!


Here's me with the ice cream!! :D


Group photo!

After the treat.. we hurried over to the train station to catch the train to Rosklide.. for the Viking museum..which closes at 5pm...



Well got onto the train... which saw a word Rosklide on it.. so we just boarded it.. after taking the ride for about 1 hr plus... a train conductor came up and while checking our tickets.. asked us where we are going.. we told her "Rosklide" and she said something in English but we couldn't catch much of it.. but heard something like "Glamso"... she left and we were pretty much lost(literally and also lost with what she told us)... Luckily.. a very nice guy walked up to me and asked me where i'm going.. i told him "Roskilde" and he told me that we are at "Glamso" now.. and have to take a backward train to Rosklide... OMG... -.-

Well.. the journey back will be about at least 45 mins.. and it's already 4 plus then.. haha! there goes our Vikings Museum.. but nonetheless.. i'm really glad for the Danish guy!! they are really so helpful! :)


We got off the next stop... and waited for the train back... An American girl was lost too... haha.. same mistakes.. cos apparently the train didn't stop at Roskilde but passes by it... :(

the train back was here and we boarded it(after asking for help) and after boarding the train.. we realise, to our horror.. that the train is spoilt and we have to wait for another one... talk about bad luck eh!!! =/


Changing trains...

After some changing of trains and stuffs... we finally reach Roskilde...


Fianlly after a long journey... :)

Roskilde Cathedral is our 1st stop... quite a nice Catherdral.. towering and vert prominent... haha... seems like Buildings in Denmark like to use red bricks for thier structures... We then carried on to the vikings Museum... though we knew it's closed.. just wanted to see if we can see any viking ship etc there... however.. it was kinda disappointing for me as i'm expecting something magnificent.. but the ships were... errm... normal? haha...

on the way there we saw a sign... "Fiskeri og badning forbudt"... wonder what it means??? haha

It means... "Fishing and bathing prohibited"... =X



On our way back to the train station... i decided to eat the Danish Pastries i bought... :)


Danish Pastries anyone?? :)


Yum yum!

The pastries is also full of whipped cream.. haha.. went into the shop and asked for something Danish.. =D

quite nice though.. the chocolate was ok.. the crust is superb!! haha!


After that.. supposed to go back to Elsinore to see the night scenery of Kronborg... but i was really quite tired.. so decided to go home.. hehe =X

On our way back... we took a double decker train!!! haha.. so cool!!! then we enter.. happily go to the 2nd floor.. and to our surprise, it's empty!!! wahahaha... so we happily joyfully gracefully took out all our stuffs and started eating... and... then... the conductor came... and we realised that it is a 1st class seats... LOL!! but well.. at least we sat there for a while.. here's the pictures!!! :)



One thing about their trains.. so nice one... all got those table for u to eat etc... hehe...

Well.. that concludes my long trip for the day... walked alot.. seen quite alot... can't wait for my next travel... haha!! :)

Flea Market, Lyngby Lake & OG Dinner~

Yo guys... long time no updates... kinda lazy and been rushing report lately... hehe.. so pardon me for this very very late update... :)

23rd Sept:

Woke up early as we (Ant, me, wx and CL) have arranged to go to the Flea Market at Lyngby Local Station to see got what bargains we can get... Got kinda delayed a bit cos we are waiting for wx and cl to finish their breakfast... hehe.. anyway we only went over after 12 noon... The Flea Market was not bad.. given that we are so late.. probably all the better bargains are gone already... but we still got to shop around for a bit... i didn't get anything.. since i dun really need anything, but WX got 2 flower pots at 5 dkk each(so cheap!) and CL got a mirror.. =X



After going thru the flea market, i came up with a conclusion... go there early for good bargains.. and go there when it's gonna close for FREE STUFFS... lol... the free stuffs aren't anything that great.. but WX manage to find a damn old album from Michael learns to rock... well.. not bad considering it's free(antique ok??!)



After going to the flea market, ant and me decide to drop by the supermarket to get some stuffs... and CL decided to tag along while WX went home... actually WX told us about a lake nearby lyngby and he'll be going later.. since he cycles... he shall go alone ba..=X Anyway, we decided to go there to see too.. since we are free and it's a Sunday... so should go out!! hehe...

Walked for quite sometime.. and we passed by this structure.. look quite nice given that Lygnby is a small town.. so we decided to take a look.. while walking pass, we saw alot of tomb stones... so we tot it's a cemetery... but after some investigation.. we realised that the Tombstones are all dated back to the 1800s and the names are all quite 'rich' names (like Jacobsen - think Carlsberg, Gustav etc..) we walked up the hill to the Church like structure and realised... it's.... REALLY A CHURCH... lol..=X anyway it's quite a nice church i must say.. small and sweet... It's the Lyngby Church and there's mass on Sunday and they are practising some organ music then.. quite nice... there's also murals drawing kind of thing on the ceiling of the church... quite interesting.. but since there are people practising there... so i didn't venture much into the Church...



Tried to take another collage photo of th Lyngby Church... not very successful.. :( but i'll try again!!!




So after visiting the Lyngby Church, we continued on our journey towards the Lyngby Lake.. after walking for sometime... we finally reach... and we saw this ferry which just came back... we went to ask them how much it was...(i forgot how much le but it's quite ex... so we decided to give it a miss... But, this ferry actually brings us up stream to another place where there's more water activities and supposedly very nice place... maybe try next time ba...

Anywayz, we continued to walk along the small stream wanting to go closer to the lake... well it's quite a simple an nice place.. u see ducks, seagulls, trees and families... haha... quite a nice place.. one thing about the Danes... they know how to relax... strolling my the stream on a Sunday... out with family enjoying life... i'm really starting to like the Danish lifestyle! :)



As we move through the trees... i spotted a squirrel and we started to snap pictures of it.. but well, squirrel are timid animals so they ran away pretty fast... but i decided to give chase into the bushes... hehe... went in and started to look around for it... and i actually saw it looking back at me... observing my next action... haha.. so cute!!! here's a picture of it looking back at me..(not very clear though..)


So cute right?? haha

Well kinda went on a macro shot spree today... keep shooting Macro shots.. me, ant and CL...LOL, trees, leaves, flowers, fruits, animals, birds even spiders.. we left nothing unscrutinized... haha!!

Here's a picture of the spider i took :)




CL in my backgrd... :(


After the trip.. we are kinda tired and started to walk back to our hostel... ant and CL went to rest.. but not for me!! cos i have another event!! lol... OG dinner~~ My guide prepared a Danish dinner for us... hehe... so yeah.. Free dinner~~~ woo hoo~~

Didn't take much photos... just lazy.. hehe... but well.. the food was ok... basically it's just boiled chicken and potato... but they have a sauce to go with it... the sauce is quite nice though... but it's quite a simple meal though...

What's good is the dessert! haha... my guide boiled the apple and dunno added what in... then with a layer of cream ontop and just chilled it... very nice!!!! yummy!! haha... the dessert only went rd the table for 1 round and it's ALL GONE... sigh... :(

After the dinner there was a small period of silence... quite akward actually... lol.. then my grp mate suggested us to play a game... lol... this game is called 7-11/... basically all u need for this game are 2 dices and plenty of water/beer...(what's new??) haha!

this is how the game goes... everyone just take turns to throw the dice... if u throw a 7 or 11, u get to choose who u want to drink a cup of water/beer. While that person is drinking, u can keep on throwing the dice, and if u get another 7/11, he/she will have to drink another cup... yeah.. sadistic game.. we started with water and we are all bloated like hell... then we continued on with wine an red wine... LOL imagine gulping down one cup of red wine... OMG~ *faint* got a bit high after that... but lucky i was still ok... hehe...(this game reminds me of indian poker.. but i think this is worse... LOL)

After finishing ALL the wine... we decided to go play pool(my guide's hostel have pool table and a bar...)

just watched one game.. it's kinda late and dun really know how to play... haha.. they are good at it sia!! i really mean it.. haha!


Here's the 4 guys playing pool...

A group left while i went to the toilet... so i decided to wait for the others to go back together... to my horror.. i only realised after we wanted to go that all the other guys have BIKES!!! sigh... ended up walking back alone.. :( well one of the guy offered to ride me home..(on the back of his bike) but i think i too heavy le.. hehe.. so i decline the offer... :)

Well, walking alone was quite a nice experience... dessert highway... cool(sometimes cold) surrounding... everything just seem so tranquil... one thing about Lyngby... it's always so tranquil.. really a good place to just live quietly... :)

Here's a picture i took of the highway... didn't expose enuf so kinda dark.. ai yah.. me noob photographer so just bear with it la.. hee~ :)



24th Sept:

The turkish people in my container prepared dinner for us tonight... haha! so nice of them... the food was really nice!!! and they made this cake like thing.. but with rice and chicken in it... very very nice!!! wished i can have more.. :( haha... but well... got to talk more to the Americans during the dinner.. seldom talk to them since we dun see each other much... so i guess.. sometimes looks can be deceiving... people who seem cold might not be cold at all! haha...

Copenhagen Trip

Saturday 15th Sept:

Shiyao came to stay over yesterday... walked to pick him up after walking around Deer Park... leg really quite cui sia... haha... anyway we decided to visit Copenhagen tomorrow... :)

Started off Early... It's gonna be a long day we forsee... and we are hoping for good weather.. haha... Copenhagen's weather... is irritating at time.. =X

Took train to the area... then we saw this Carlsberg thingy and we decided to go and ask... the guy told us we have to walk one whole big round to get to the visitor center..(this is the actual brewery...) Ultra sianz... coupled with the strong winds... it's getting really chilly!!!!

However the way to the visitor has quite a few pictures to take actually... apparently the whole street is named after Carlsberg...(Carls is the founder's son name and Berg is just a place in Denmark) Well they are quite rich in Denmark... so as we walk the streets..(named Gamme Carlsberg and Ny Carlsberg... meaning old and new carlsberg) we saw alot of statues, carvings and even a gate called the elephant gate... haha quite magnificent actually... for a normal street to be like dat...



After finally reaching the entrance...(after braving the strong winds...) we went in to register for the tour... it was basically an exhibition on Carlsberg beer.. their history.. how the beer was made... and also they have this bottle collection where they have a guiness world record of having the most beer bottle collection... LOL... the collection is quite extensive... and apparently they imported their beer to China as early as 1800s!! lol... Guess it might really be probably the best beer in the World eh?



Well apparently.. according to their history.. there's 2 type of Carlsberg bear... the Ny and the Gamme...(new and old) But the merge after the father died... =X

Also.. there's alot of different edition of beer bottles and beer... including all the special beer... it's definitely an eye opener for someone like me, who dun drink much...

Well, the tour ended with 2 free beer... ehe... one normal beer and one special brew... the special brew is 6% alcohol for the one i chose... Brown Ale... quite strong... since Vodka is only 7.5% and i usually dilute it before drinking.. haha... my face turned red after i drank.. but the Special Brew is really nice!!! haha... the normal brew was not bad too! alot better than those back in Singapore... haha =X



After Carlsberg tour... we continued on to Copenhagen City tour... well.. the wind is extremely strong today... and the beer certainly did help at 1st... but after the effect wears off......... bbrrrrrr... it's cold... haha!

Walked quite alot today... From the Carlsberg place we walked to Copenhagen, near Tivoli Gardens there... Tivoli Gardens is an Amusement park... quite a few rides which seems good... but entrance and rides are not cheap though.. :(

There we visited quite a few places like Amalienborg, Rosenborg, Christianborg, Little Mermaid, The Marble(3rd largest dome shape cathedral in Europe), The Harbour, and also a fortress by near little mermaid...

Copenhagen City tour was quite different from the last time i came... since i did a canal tour that time.. this time is more tiring since we walked the whole journey... and the wind.. is disgustingly strong... i even lost my balance while taking photographs!!! -.-



Shiyao took a few Paranormal Pictures and it's nice!! i tried to do that... but it turn out disastrously ugly.. guess i have a long way to go.. :(






Carlsberg


Christianborg







Nice right?? in contrast to mine.. :(



How come ah??? any advices?? LOL =X

Well.. after walking for sometime... we decided to just eat dinner and rot till 11.45 pm so can watch fireworks..(there's fireworks on every sat nite at Tivoli Gardens.. :))


Nice place...


Dinner... Pizza again... lol, buffet this time though..=X

After the dinner.. meet up with CL and WX to watch the fireworks.. it was... ok... haha.. not as good as i expect... but well.. better than nothing la... =X



Sunday 15th sept:

Have meeting today.. so didn't join Shiyao for his trip to Helsingor today... well no choice... sianz...

here's some photos from the preparation of the dinner... quite sumptuous dinner actually.. used 1 packet of my sweet and sour sauce!! haha.. Shiyao should be honored sia.. =X




Overall... 2nd visit to Copenhagen.. Different feeling... manage to tour more... haha... now looking forward to my other travels... haha! but 1st... have to continue with my project 1st... sigh... :(

Deer Park (Jægersborg Dyrehave)

Friday 14th Sept:

Decided to go to the Deer Park (Jægersborg Dyrehave) with CL and Anthony today... since it's our free day... and we've never been there before... and it's one of the 20 Danish Gems of Nature...( at number 15!)

Weixian (the other NTU guy) went to the park with some other friends (cycling there...) so CL had no choice but to walk with us there... LOL!!

It was a long walk there... took about... maybe near 2 hrs?? well given the fact that it's quite some distance away... and that we do not know exactly how to walk there.. it's quite fast....

On the way to the park... saw an open field... and there are 3 horses running on the field... CL started to make the tsk tsk tsk sound to attract the horses... well.. i tot it was kinda idoitic.. cos i dun think the horses will react to that.. =X haha... then i found a carrot on the floor... i took it up and wave it a bit... and he 3 horses came running towards me!!! -.-

after attracting them here.. we took alot of photos with them.. LOL! never got so upclose with horses b4 ma... we all urban kia..(urban kids) :)



After we past the horses... saw some flowers by the road side and decided to take a shot of it..



Quite like macro pictures sometimes... the focus on the small things in life just give a totally different feeling.. :)


Well.. more roads to walk.. and finally we reach the gate of the Deer Park.. that's when our photo frenzy session start... it started off with us trying to take a timer photo... then continued to harass joggers to take photos for us... wahahahah!

This is a very nice place... very peaceful feeling... (afterall majority of the 'things' here are deers...) quite like the large field, blue skies... coupled with the sunny weather... it makes the walk really very nice!!! (though we did horland a bit in the middle... thanx to CL wanting to see the 'river')

After walking a while, we realised the deers are all pretty far away... so our adventurous spirits urged us to go nearer... haha.. but well, deers are group animals.. so there's really alot of them clustering together..(male have horns!!! big ones..) so we didn't scare to approach too near to them... at a point.. CL exclaimed that the males are all getting alert... haha... probably because we are intruding to their territory... then we decided to retreat.. :(

nevertheless, we tried to do some funny photos... and well.. did the typical SMU post.. =X.. Reach for the skies~~~


Me with CL...


Me with Ant...

Unfortunately.. we are unable to take a full picture of all 3 of us... hahahaha! =X




We have seen our deers... tried to get upclose.. so we have fulfilled the 1st objective... now for the 2nd objective... to see the sea~ haha... :)

After walking for about 30 mins..(maybe more? cos we horland here..) we finally saw a glimpse of the sea!!! it was really nice... nothing like our East Coast beach... haha.. the sea seem so blue.. so wide... u can see wind turbines too!!! u see yacht.. canoe... it's really... a feeling of tranquility!!!! :)

Tried to do a few 'artistic photos' hahahah.... well turn out ok... got a little 'feel' ba... hehe =X



started to walk back after walking by the sea for sometime... it's getting late and the sun seems to be setting and we would want to get out before the sun sets..(there's no lights there!!!) haha..

Tried to take a few photos of the sunset on our way back... somehow dunno why my camera can't do it well.. :( but well.. did some photo editing.. lol =X



Like this photo quite a lot.. and it's taken with my camera... wahahahahaha! :)


Sunset always looks nice.. love the roack by the side.. haha

And one more thing... one common sights along the roads in Denmark... SLUGS!!! ewww




Reach back pretty late... so we decided.... to.... not cook!!! and eat pizza!!! haha.. our monthly treat ma.. =X


Tada!!! our dinner!!! muahahahahaha


Now i understand why my mum so angry when i so go home eat... cos it's damn mafan to cook... LOL =X


Trip to Deer Park... quite a nice experience... different from the normal tour cos we don't really know what we are looking out for..(except deers) the tour brouchres are all in Danish so we don't understand anything.. but well.. i enjoyed the trip alot... It was really a nice experience... to go to somewhere not too touristy... and just relax for the day.. :)

Kelvin

Just one more...

Was just listening to my mp3... and heard kit chan's "there's no place i'd rather be" again... i guess... it's only when u are away from home that u realise how nice is home... i can see all i wanted to... do things that i wanted to... but home gives u a warmth that no where else can... :)

Here's the mtv again... ndp live version.. enjoy~~



Extra Verse:

I've brave the rain in Spain
Dance in Taipei

I've queued in the West End to catch the plays

Discovered i love snow
All nights in San Fransisco

But it's still you i miss when i'm away......

There's no place i'd rather be..
You'll always be a part of me
And even though i've roamed the world
It's still my home i long to see
This is where my family
and my friends grew up with me
So i'll cross the skies and sail the seas
to be where i wanna be

There's no place i'd rather be..
You'll always be a part of me
And even though i've roamed the world
It's still my home i long to see
This is where my family
and my friends grow old with me
So i'll cross the skies and sail the seas
to be where i wanna be


Love the last about growing old instead of growing up... adds even more meaning i guess.. haha~ :)

Trip to Ikea....

Thursday:

Morning lessons today... Told Chiao Luan (Another Singaporean for exchange in DTU from NTU - hey.. reply D by N and u get NTU! =X) that we will be going to IKEA... She's ok with going together so we decided to make a trip there... well... was having a lesson (Digital comms) before that... and was kinda stuck at doing mathlab(i hate it!!).... haha so got delayed for the trip... :(

Well came back from databar(like our com lab)... cooked lunch and changed and we went to look for Chiao Luan(CL) to go to IKEA... it was a long journey there... haha.. in total we walked for an hour before reaching... and well got lost somewhere in the middle... and CL asked for direction and luckily we were directed to the right place... was a little doubtful of the direction given by the old lady..
